Morphology of the carnation-light synthetic lethal focus in Drosophila melanogaster.
A histological study of the carnation-light lethal focus revealed morphological abnormalities in brain tissue. The ratio of core width to total brain width and brain texture consistently differed between lethal (car-lt) and their non-lethal sibs.
